Fishing Gift Ideas 2010 – Glacier Gloves!

If you fish in the winter, a good pair of gloves are a must. Ive been using Glacier Gloves (model 821BK) for about a year now and when the weather is cold, I don’t leave home without them. Not only do I use them when I fish, they have become my daily winter gloves!

Cost $40 USD

Glacier Glove 821BK: First Impressions

I’ve been using Glacier Gloves over the last couple of weeks while fishing nearby rivers in search of trout and salmon. The temperature has been just below freezing for much of that time but I was able to keep fishing in comfort thanks to these gloves. I think most fishermen overlook this important piece of equipment, but you’ll be able to spend more time fishing and less time with you hands in your pockets with a proper pair of gloves.

Glacier Outdoor has developed a whole line of gloves specifically designed for fishermen and I’ve been lucky enough to be testing out their top of the line, premium neoprene gloves. These gloves feature finger slits for for the thumb and index finger which allows you to complete tasks such as tying knots without having to remove your gloves. Stay tuned for a full review!

Stormy Kromer Big Fish Contest

Stormy Kromer, maker of the awesome hats you’ll probably recall from our Stormy Kromer give-away, have just announced their Big Fish Contest. This your best chance to win a Stormy Kromer hat, they’re giving away two hats every month from now until September, in addition to that they’re giving away another hat for the “Netman” award to the biggest fish netted.

Last but not least, the grand prize for the Stormy Kromer Big Fish Contest is a huge and amazing set of gear including (take a deep breath if you’re reading this one outloud)…. A Stormy Kromer hat, Stormy Kromer jacket, Stormy Kromer pants, Stormy Kromer shirt, Stormy Kromer gloves, AND a selection of five Rapala fishing lures, a St. Croix fishing rod, and a Stone Legacy rod holder. Enough to make any fisherman the envy of everyone around him.

This will undoubtedly be one of the most epic big fish contest this year so I want to see lots of submissions from Fishing Fury readers and we’d also love to see your big fish submissions and let us know if you win anything!

Watch out for Musky Bill, we know he loves the hat he won in our giveaway and there’s no doubt that he’s always catching big fish.
